I Had an issue today that required me to forward an email to a colleague to review. However the sender had prevent the "Copying" , Printing , Forwarding of this particular email and they were unable to one reason or another to resend it.So I fired up Domino Designer and added the following agent to the "Actions" Menu of my mailfile.I'm not going to even go into the morles and ethics of removing these so called "security features" from emails so please dont start going off on a rant.

I recently picked up 2 of these in Maplin along with 2x 300GB IDE hard drives.

They work out of the box. Just plug in to you existing network, setup the share name and permissions via the builtin web interface, map to the drive(s) on you workstaion and your good to go. The LANDisk can also act as a DHCP server.

I was having some intermittant issuse with one of the devices locking up so I updated the firmware. The chipset (Conceptronic CHD3NET) is the same as that used on some other devices so I loaded the latest one I cauld find from here. http://www.station-drivers.com/page/landisk.htm including bootloader.

The site also has a firmware loader to ease the update process.

I am currently testing the OpenVPN aspect of box. Take a look at dd-wrt.com for more info.

Use Petter's disk to reset the MACHINE Administrator password to "no password".

Reboot, hit F8, and enter "Directory Service Recovery Mode". The machine will boot up as a standalone server without any Active Directory support.

When the login screen appears, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and log in as "Administrator" with no password.

If a hard shutdown or live acquisition is performed, this data may not have been properly flushed creating an unreadable log file. The results in a log file is corrupt error.

Steps to Recover:

1. Copy out the Windows event log you are interested in (e.g. SecEvent.Evt, SysEvent.Evt or AppEvent.Evt).

2. Before proceeding, try to open the file with your event viewer. If you get the message, “The event log is corrupted”, then continue with the following steps.
